I'm excited to introduce my new project and blog: From Anna's Kitchen.
Although marketing is my day job that pays the bills, food is my real passion. It's something I have dedicated much of my time writing about and doing for many years, with some of my first real experiences in the kitchen starting when I was just 5 years old when I would bake with my grandma when she would visit us from Florida.
Creating From Anna's Kitchen is a natural evolution of where this blog, my personal blog ... Continue Reading

So, this post is about a week belated... oops. I had it drafted and never posted it in time.
I've been on a German food kick over the last few weeks, which I think towards the beginning of December when Steve and I went to New York to see the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. We ventured over to Reichenbach Hall for dinner, a place we found during one of our last trips. If you've never been there, you feel like you're stepping into an Oktoberfest celebration when you enter the restaurant. Blue ... Continue Reading
